If you must know, Phillips is not considered one of the top brands in
the U.S.

Yeah, they must be trolls.


You said it, not me.

Oh no? ROFLMAO! Who do you think first developed LED bulbs? Here's a
hint: it wasn't Phillips.

Hint:

The Energy Independence and Security Act (EISA) of 2007 authorized the
Department of Energy (DOE) to establish the Bright Tomorrow Lighting
Prize competition, known as the "L Prize".

On 3 August 2011, DOE awarded the prize in the 60 W replacement category
to a Philips' LED lamp after 18 months of extensive testing.


Yes, but they did not develop the LED bulb. You obviously are not
reading, and arguing for argument's sake.


Neither inventing nor developing something is worth a lot unless you can
actually manufacture it. Witness the failure of the Wright Bros. airplane
company.


Which is completely immaterial. The topic was development of LED light
bulbs. But you can't stay on topic, as usual.

Nope. There is no analog TV in the United States.


Tell that to the FCC who is allowing analog stations until Septempber,
2015.



A few low power stations, with range in the single digits of miles.
Hardly worth commenting on. Nothing worth commenting about, because the
number of people who can receive them is so low.

Effectively the entire country has converted to digital.

And it has nothing to do with the 70 meter band, as indicated in the
FCC's denial of the petition.

Yet more megalomaniacal ranting caused by others disagreeing that Jerry
Stuckles knows everything and is ALWAYS correct, even when he is not.

I guess I should say I did mispeak; the remaining analog TV stations are
not "the reason" the FCC denied the 4M band petition, they are one of the
reasons.
